Have a nice day!
I want to share healthy herbs that we commonly find everywhere. I thought before that this is just an ordinary weed but when I came here to Saudi Arabia, I found people eating it mixed with any kind of vegetables. I love vegetables but it must be according to what my parent gave to me before.
It grew freely in my flower garden. But there are people who plant it their farm and sell in the market.
Aa far as I knew, I asked information about why they ate those weeds? Then they told me that it is very good for a person who was with a blood problem like hypotension. It is also good for a dengue infected person. It helped the platelets overcome the virus. It had been tested here in my workplace.
Later on, I heard from my parent about it. This is called Olasiman in Filipino.
It looks like spinach or as a succulent plant
Look at this plant hanging at the back part of the aircon. I wondered if how it grew there. Maybe, its the bird who cut it and brought it there. It became an attractive hanging plant, most especially in the morning when the tiny flowers bloom.
This morning, I cut some of the flowers and took a picture.
The nice tiny flowers are very attractive.
Soon, I will be cooking it with any kind of green leafy vegetables in my garden. Eating an organic vegetables is so very safe for us. I know what water I watered them every day and I never use any pesticides here.
I encourage everyone to be more cautious about our daily intake. Plant your own vegetables.
